It's always wise to get full details when buying and selling - then check they are correct.

When I say details I mean name and address and telephone number ......

Never understood why someone would scam anyone for £50 (guess at what a 2nd hand PP chip would sell for). It is such a petty amount to get your name tarnished over. Hope it is a genuine mistake and it gets sorted mate.

What a load of agro for you. Keep up with the dispute on paypal. You'll get your money back.

is the pin completely broken off or just the lower half of the leg, as they can be repaired if there is some left.
